Leccino monocultivar extra virgin olive oil

Olive oil is the result of know-how and craftsmanship that has its roots in a very distant past. The underground oil mills which still remain well preserved and can be visited in the land of Puglia today give us the measure of an activity which is a distinctive feature and characterizing sign of a territory and a people who still today pass on its gestures one by one. Among the olive oils most produced in Puglia we find Leccino. It is an oil deriving from the cultivar of the same name, which is widely spread throughout Puglia and in particular in its southernmost part.
